Days of our Lives Spoilers August 12: Devastated Rachel Breaks Down With Brady

Days of our Lives packs an emotional punch on Wednesday with a father-daughter moment. According to spoilers for August 12, 2026, Rachel opens up to Brady for some heartbreaking Salem moments. Plus, the Kiriakis brothers and Gabi scramble.

The Truth Hurts

Rachel (Lorelei Mote) is still devastated after learning from "Susan" (Stacy Haiduk) that her mom left town just when Rachel had finally been released from Bayview. How could Kristen do such a thing, and why?

Brady (Eric Martsolf) knows it's because EJ (Daniel Feuerriegel) is after Kristen again and she feels her life and Rachel's life are both in danger, so she had to run away. Rachel doesn't even realize that her mom did say goodbye. She just did it in the form of her Aunt Susan?

Rachel doesn't understand what is going on and expresses her confused feelings to Brady before breaking down. She misses Kristen and has no idea why her mother keeps having to go away. How will Brady explain to Rachel that Kristen loves her more than anything, but just has no idea how to stay out of trouble?

Sarah (Linsey Godfrey) is also on hand to lend a listening ear and words of advice. She is a poor substitute for Kristen in Rachel's eyes, but not Brady's eyes.

Fighting for Titan

Philip (John-Paul Lavoisier) and Xander (Paul Telfer) refuse to give up their quest to save their father's company from EJ. They thought it would be smooth sailing, but EJ went and pulled a fast one on them and now they are back to square one. They still need to come up with all that cash to pay off Titan's loan in full.

Xander is ready to make a desperate move. Does it involve Sarah? He finds himself in deep conversation with his ex about Titan's problems, so what does he decide to do?

As for Gabi (Cherie Jimenez), she comes up with a risky plan with Philip to save the day. Will she do something with Gabi Chic and those knock-off purses to get a cash windfall? Maybe EJ had better watch who he plays games with because Gabi doesn't like to lose.

Are you rooting for a Gabi and Philip reunion? Are you rooting for a Sarah and Xander reunion...finally? Share your thoughts in the comments.
